The base for the Commander was the "dual mono" circuit, which was previously used for Pandora preamps. The novelty also received a single-stage A-class buffer built on two transistors and one resistor. The Commander's important features include zero feedback and a reduced noise level several times when compared with previous Gryphon Audio products.

    Gryphon Audio ZENA

    So, what can Gryphon Zena flaunt? First of all, the traditional "double mono" balanced design for the Danish company and work in pure class A with zero feedback. The rotating regulator of the Athena model has been replaced with a discrete one with 43 steps of 2 dB each. The element base, as usual, is ultra–high class - SMD metal-foil resistors, Pickering relays.

    Preamplifiers

    Gryphon Audio PANDORA

    With a battery of capacitors with a capacity of 90,000 UF per channel, Gryphon Pandora has enough energy reserve to power most integrated amplifiers or power amplifiers. The excess power supply ensures reliable control, wide dynamic range and signal purity without any restrictions. Additionally, the Gryphon Pandora power supply provides energy to an external unit or an embedded Gryphon Legato Legacy phono corrector board.

    Gryphon Audio ESSENCE PREAMPLIFIER

    The Gryphon Audio Essence Preamplifier is equipped with a pair of XLR connectors and three RCA inputs. The internal wiring is completely missing - all the circuitry is mounted on printed circuit boards. Microprocessor control allows you to fully customize the Gryphon Audio Essence Preamplifier "for yourself" by selecting the maximum signal level, starting values and calibrating any input within 8 dB.
